It was too late to respond to anyone. His brother would probably see he’s at home now. McKayla maybe she didn’t even care. She had that about her, unlike Layla, he wished it was her instead. He hadn’t laughed like that with someone. She seemed to just get him. 

Now...

He woke up and he wasn't sure if it was the early morning or the early night. His roommate wasn't home, or didn't wake him because he was still on the couch. 

Oh in the summer he was gone anyway most of the time, helping at a summer camp. Teaching...

The omelette never got made. He ended up just boiling two eggs. 

The onion had gone off, and his arrival to his apartment had brought out all the tiredness of the trip. Of the hangover and everything else. Maybe it was adrenaline. He showered, and had the eggs. He had...

He wanted to go back, or charge his phone so he could explain to...

A strange feeling started in his stomach and worked its way to his brain. He awoke startled not in his bed or at his brothers house. The arm of someone over his chest. He was going to be sick. This happened usually after a night out. One time, then he...

Through his door he passed by Laylas more shoes than normal.

"Were they still going?" 

He counted only an extra pair. The anger he had the night before was less so. It was her life he thought, if she wants to be with that MSU loser it was fine.
